I’m a new convert, your advices give me so much energy and hope to do my best as a catholic. Thanks Jackie for making a newbie like me feel welcomed. God bless you.
Hearing that an actual SAINT didn’t find the rosary to be “her jam”.🤣 So very human! Love that we as Catholics have so many awesome tools to help us become holier each and every day. Great video!❤️
Amen! I recall Venerable Fulton J Sheen saying that we pray NOT with our stomachs (like, I'm hungry, I feel like ice cream, I don't feel like eating vegetables, I don't FEEL like praying the Holy Rosary, etc) but with our intellect. Obedience to Our Lady of Fatima's instructions!
Amen🙏 I try to do it for her request as well❤️ I know its hard sometimes and we feel like we don’t have enough time but sometimes those are temptations to stop us from doing it since the rosary scares the devil and pulls him away. He doesn’t want any of us to pray the rosary because our faith grows.
I like to pray the Rosary in German with my Rosary application on my phone. I'm almost 50 years old now, and I feel like praying the Rosary auf Deutsch feeds my inner child, because I studied German for two years in high school, and I like to feel connected to inner child. 💓🤓👍🏻🕊
Anna Panicker nonono. An idiot is not what you ARE. You may DO stupid things, but you are Gods beloved child, created after His image. I’m sorry you’ve come to believe that you are an idiot.
It doesn't matter how far you can go from GOD, but He's always there with you waiting for you to get back into His arms. He's just a call away. Try HIM today. GOD bless you
Total Consecration to Jesus through Mary❤️❤️ I especially like the book by St Louis de Montfort. The closer we are to Mary, the closer we are to Jesus!!
@Catholics: Jesus is the Only Way Jesus didn't come down through himself, he chose to come down through Mary, what do you think huh? Did he need a poor girl to save the world? If you say he didn't, does God do things for doing seek? If you say he needed to use her and he no more needs her, does God use people and dump them? If he needed her indeed, them we must accord great respect to the one lady who from genesis was foretold about, we give God thanks for seeing a human fit to bear His son, and we honour her for letting herself be a worthy vessel, the new eve, the new ark
You can’t love Jesus and despise his mom st the same time. Mary is the Queen of heaven. If your planning on living in heaven for eternity you should probably start getting to know the holy family. Research Fatima apparition and you will see our lady’s involvement in our salvation
I've been a practicing Catholic for almost 1.5 years, I prayed the rosary daily for the first couple of months, but for some reason I feel like what helps me connect the most and feel God the closest is turning every sngle light off in my bedroom, light a candle, listen to gregorian chants (specially Crux fidelis) and just stare at the cross in my wall, open my heart to Him, and to listen. I've asked Him many questions, but didn't hear the answer, allowing Him to speak to me in the quiet of my bedroom... that's the best feeling in the world
Agree. Please try to visit the Blessed Sacrament of Adoration Chapel. All Catholic church has this small room to have an intimate prayer. Look up to Jesus in the monstrance, hes waiting for you. God Bless u❤
This was beautiful. I don't have friends and I'm usually alone running this race and I'm trying to stay strong and offer it all up to God. Life is a blessing so gotta make it count💚🌻
Stay strong! I just met another woman on Twitter and we have struck up a friendship. She’s in New Jersey and I’m in Maryland and she is a lapsed Catholic, so I’m working on getting her back into the Church... little by little, planting seeds in her mind. May God provide you an opportunity to do the same! Keep your faith and continue to walk in the Lord! I have no Catholic friends where I live either. Are there any groups in your Church you might become involved with? I’m praying that God provides you with a Catholic sister to become friends with in your area so you feel better supported! Xx
@@julesinmd2585 Thank you so much! I actually am a eucharistic minister and do communion service at the retirement homes! So I'm usually around older people which I love! But I don't have any religious friends my age. My peers tell me I am too mature for my age, especially in this generation I have a hard time finding people similar to me! But maybe thats what I was called to be by God! Gotta stay gracious.💚
Our Blessed Mother Mary asks us to pray the Rosary daily...our obedience to her request is an act of love😊 we should practice, CARE stands for Confession, Adoration, Rosary & Eucharist....
Wow I never stopped to think about Mama Mary being the first disciple - a woman❣️ Prayer is conversations with God...and I thank Him for my many blessings and my challenges that are meant to make me better...usually I’m doing most of the talking BUT I’m trying hard to listen more🙏 and hear Him talking to me❤️
Thank you for these wonderful insights Jackie ! One thing though : even if St Therese struggled with the rosary , she did pray it every day ! Remember that our Lady at Lourdes and Fatima insistently asked us to pray the rosary . It is an uphill struggle I know but so so worth it! I can really say that the rosary has transformed my and my family‘s life completely !
There are two forces pulling me towards reconnecting with faith (RC). My deeper understanding due to age and maturity (44) and the way Christians are being re-persecuted, while sins are glorified and revered. And of course wonderful content such as your own.
Love this video! Thanks Jackie!!! I used to pray the rosary everyday until I felt like I was just doing it out of routine and I wasn't actually meaningfully praying it. Now, I try to pray it once a week, and I give myself time while praying it so I could focus on the mysteries.
I recall Venerable Fulton J Sheen saying that we pray NOT with our stomachs (like, I'm hungry, I feel like ice cream, I don't feel like eating vegetables, I don't FEEL like praying the Holy Rosary, etc) but with our intellect. Obedience to Our Lady of Fatima's instructions... God bless you...🙏🏼
It helps if you have a really good book of the Rosary with pictures to meditate on, when it is more difficult to focus. Also I sometimes pray it with Mother Angelica because she prays all 4 mysteries on Utube. (yes I know she has passed, but she is still on Utube)
God bless you, dear Jackie. You always explain it so nice and correctly. You are such a beautiful and smart woman. Holy Spirit is with you. You're in my prayers..and your family. ✝️🙏❤️😊
I just listened to this video for the second time today and it wasn’t until the second time that I truly heard God’s message to me through you. Thanks for this video. 🙏🏻✝️🕊❤️
I look up to you Jackie! I want to surround myself with people that love God and want God in their lives so that we may help each other get to heaven! I want to be a virtous woman!
do you ever get depressed Jackie? Your bubbly personality, is it always that way? I feel less of a woman sometimes because I’m always stressed and sad frequently. But I hide it behind my smiles. I love Jesus and am Catholic. Thank you.
The young woman in this video seems like a positive person. I think most positive persons are generally happy. I'm happy and positive most of the time, unless I visit a content creators channel that uses deceit to win subscribers over. I suppose the devil uses those content creators to his advantage and the weak are drawn into their evil. The devil is powerful and will own the mind if you let him. Ascension isn't one of those channels to avoid.
Life can be tough, and that’s okay, but my advice is that you try to love even when you are hurting. That might me letting people know you are sad, because being honest can build trust and keep you safe if stuff gets dark. Honestly, I haven’t been able to do this too well yet, but I try to just pray and trust that, if I allow love to take control, God will lead me. Best of luck!
+@Catholics: Jesus is the Only Way Ok, so, I'm a Roman Catholic as well and I would like to respectfully disagree with this statement. The Catholic Church doesn't actually discourage the use of sacramentals (rosaries, statues, etc.) In fact, if that's how you prefer to pray there's nothing wrong with that. You should never worship these images but they should always point to God. Fun fact, the alter is also a sacramental and where would Catholics be without the Mass! Anyway, I hope this helped and again, I mean no disrespect. God bless!
Thank you! I’ll have to rewatch that one and take notes! You had so many good scriptures and ideas. Thank you for challenging me to be better! God bless you and your family!
My brother who died at 27 said "have you ever asked God what He wants you to pray? Maybe you're only meant to say one Hail Mary a day. Or a Hail Holy Queen a day." I struggle with praying the rosary. I always have. I usually can pray easier with someone. But on my own I almost never pray it. I don't like that about myself but I'm with St. Therese.. I just feel like it's not my jam either. I know it helps me but to pray it I just struggle. Pray for me friends ♡
I watch one of these on mean people it really helped me I'm a non denominational Christian we are all apart of the body of Christ keep doing what yall are doing thank yall for encouragement and love
Love what you say at about the 6:00 mark, where it (impurities being sloughed off) keeps on happening until the Father can see his face in us. Wow! This is a great way to think about it. Thank you for this analogy! ❤️
What you said about Rosary. I'm having trouble praying it. It's a beautiful prayer, but any time I feel that urge to pray, my mind instantly is going to Divine Mercy. And so it is my " favorite " prayer.
Keep trying to pray it every day. It does get easier to pray as time goes on. I know because I have trouble with it also but I pray it every day. Also, if you have images of the decades to meditate on it helps A LOT. Padre Pio said the Rosary is THE weapon. Also the Blessed virgin Mary let us know at Fatima that she wanted us all to pray it. If we had more Catholics praying it we would be better off. If you look up the 15 promises of the Rosary you will almost WANT to pray it
Hi Jackie I'm so inspired by your sharing. But I'm struggling now with my marriage. Especially since I started holy hour after completing the sacred heart novena. Now every Friday I go for holy hour in our church. But my husband doesn't follow me. And then I attended the Catholicism programme by Bishop Robert Barron. That was the best decision I made. I tried encouraging him to attend with me. But he refused since there was sharing after each session. He attends mass 3 times during the week but is not open in serving the church. He's not open to confession too many times other than twice a year. I try to encourage him and my kids by going myself every other week
I think I saw you at Blessed John Henry Newman Ordinariate Parish this past Sunday! I didn't get a chance to say hello but, I thank you for all your words and wisdom, especially on the season of singlehood. You are such a blessing to so many people!
Awesome ... Please do the saints vid... :) cant wait... In my house we are devote to Saint Anthony of Padua. My kids know him like the palm of their hands...
Make a video on virtue ethics, Father Mike could help too. I’ve started studying myself and it is awesome - taking me to new levels in my “sanctity” ( because that is the true goal (and I’m not there - not bragging)). Jesus said my war is of principalities. The supernatural virtues are faith, hope, and love. The cardinal virtues are temperance, prudence, justice, and fortitude - all other virtues come from those. Bad principalities: pride, anger, lust, envy, gluttony, averice, and sloth. And the sins that come from those are described as “the daughters” of each one of those. Know, after virtue and vice basics, you can get into ethics that are most important to your lives as women. And you can get specific to women’s different lives, responsibilities, and trials. So pretty much what you do in every video I guess hahah. I just wanted to share. Virtue ethics is major, and it really hasn’t been taught too much in the last century. And these are considered eternal fruits, as valuable and un-perishable to God ( go to Thomas for better summary on this off course) Thank you Jackie, I’m going to go back and watch Matt’s video.
Gavin thank you for this it was very informative I myself am just beginning my studies of the virtues I am definitely lacking and I need them to help me overcome and I want to teach my children these as well. Anyway thank you for all of this info it’s been very helpful God bless
I’m glad you found it useful, Lauren. I’m going to start with Dr. Taylor Marshall’s free book, “Thomas Aquinas in 50 pages” and then on to Nicomachean ethics which is a real old book that is the genesis to a lot of writings on ethics. For sure teach your kids logic and reasoning, and virtue ethics - I am 20 and did not receive really anything useful in public school and have learned more online than I have in the entirety of my previous education. I don’t know specific courses for kids, but I know there is a lot of good courses out there. I’ll say a prayer for you - Logos is rising
Just to point out- meekness, lowliness and forbearance does not mean you should tolerate violence, abuse, broken bones, threats to your own or your children's safety. Marriage vows are binding even if the marriage is unhappy, which most are eventually. We say for better or for worse, and worse is pretty much the norm. So, nobody ever promised you're going to be happy in marriage or that your husband will treat you well. But the "for worse" is not supposed to include getting crippled or killed by your spouse, or having your children grow up terrified.
Thank you for the video!! I have so many things to work on. Could you please make a video about how to stay be good catholic in abusive relationship either emotionally, verbally or physically. Should you take it as cross to bear and offer the suffering or are you bad catholic if you choose to separate?
Chocolicious one your safety comes first! Put as much distance between you and the abuser as you can. Find good counselling and healing. Then, and only then can you start to think about how to help this person. The truly loving thing to do for abusers is to prevent any further abuse. Please, save yourself first. Praying for you.
In the video, you mentioned that you may make a video about praying to the saints and Mary. Someone in my family just said that he is uncomfortable saying the Rosary because it feels wrong to pray to Mary. I think due to our Protestant culture, this is a major conflict for many people, even many faithful Catholics. I'd love to watch a video about it! :)
Thank you and God Bless you. Pls may i ask you to pray for my son Michael Iglesias who suffers from severe depression and alcoholism znd does not want to seek help. Thank you and your husband for alk the wonderful work you do in the name of the Lord
Hunger for the unadulterated Word of God is a sign of true salvation. His Word is the light 🕯️ unto our path, and the lamp 🪔 unto our feet. It is our daily bread 🍞 without which we will starve spiritually. It is essential for our spiritual growth. Nothing will ever compare to it! Nothing will ever stand close.
Thank you so much! Your awesome! I do say the Divine Mercy Chaplet! And I did not know that about St.Teresa. I made some or I was encouraged by someone who has made sweet prayers. On Our Father beads, Sweet Heart of Jesus, be my salvation. On Hail Mary beads, Sweet Heart of Mary, be my Love, my life, my sweetness and my hope. Sweet Heart of Mary, hear and answer my prayers. S.H.M., be my advocate. Oh Mary, conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee. O Queen, who art the beauty of Carmel, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen Lisa
Of course!!! Definitely share...that's why she made it... to share with us and since not everyone will get a first chance, then we share it with them so they will get to hear! God bless....🙏🏼
Just one word about "mortal sin" (which I think is a big thing in the Catholic church? I am not Catholic but from what I heard it seems to be) - whatever it is, I don't want to know. I just want to tell you, that I struggled a lot about bible verses like that, and I thought: "Maybe God won't forgive me." But no, the bible would be a lie, if God won't forgive be ANYTHING I ask him for. God promised to forgive us any sin when we ask for it. So (my pastor explained me) this MUST BE to clue: If we commit an unforgivable sin, we would (for what ever reason) not come to God. Because IF we come, he MUST forgive us. Thank God, he isn't a liar ♡♡♡
@Jin jin ah thank you very much! See, I got that wrong there. Mortal sin always sounded for me as a unforgivable sin (also English isn't my first language) - so thanks for making that clear to me!! 🤠
@Austin BrownThe Father is not the Son, nor the Son the Father, nor the Holy Ghost either again. God, or the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost are one. Not one person, but one as in, "they shall be one flesh." Not that they aren't really two fleshes, but that they are to be considered one. Except the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost are and always have been one. Not the same person, but the same God. Scripture doesn't say the Father, Son and Holy Ghost are 'expressions' of the same person. It clearly, and constantly distinguishes between them. If you are going to ignore that and claim the distinction isn't relevant, or pretend, then why are you pretending you care what Scripture says? Avoid the temptation to follow private interpretation of Scripture, over and against the faith once delivered to the saints. We don't need any more new 'original' interpretations. We just need the original, constant, perennial, and universal faith. not a new one. not a new interpretation. Not a new god.
@@AveChristusRex well, there is just one God, so we can't have "a new God". We just need to find the truth. Whether the truth is what Christians believe since 2000 years or a few hundred years, or it's completely "new" (for us new, obviously not for God) The church is not perfect. If the church is wrong, we should not stick to that, just because they did it for hundreds of years, but rather stand up to he truth, even if every single pastor / pope / Father is against it. You know what I mean? (I hope it's doesn't sound rude, my English isn't the best) ♡♡
You are right... the Word Of God is not a history book but Holy Spirit breathed... please talk about the Scripture in 1 Corinthians 11 concerning women covering their heads. Not sure why women don’t generally obey this any more
Love it! I will be writing that bible verse down 🙏💗😇☝🏼 Thank you for this beautiful reflexion and lesson. I practice all of this, but fail time and time again. My prayer and Sacraments have helped me to heal so many areas of my life. 💗
I love you heart. Know that you can go boldly to the throne of grace and confess to God . No need to confess to a priest. Knock out the middle man sweetie. God is God all by Himself. Love and Blessings to you.
May I ask what bible translation Jackie is reading? I am not a native English speaker, and sometimes I find english translation is so much easier to understand. Thanks
Hey it's an amazing video. But I've been struggling with selfdoubt and self hatred for a really long time.. And when i read these verses it convicts it even more of what I'm not or what i should be. And this makes me feeling so bad, it makes me hate myself even more and makes me to compare to other christian woman and (also to the one describe in binle) with wonder how can they be so amazing and godly and JUST PERFECT.. does that even exist? I hate myself for not being that good enough 😭😭😭😭😭
Sometimes I hate myself too. I think it is important to remember that even when you hate yourself, God doesn't hate you. Try to remember that God is continuously working in us.
Please find time to reply . I'm really struggling to understand this whole situation. My prayer life has become deeper and I have started getting up early to spend time in prayer so that my daily routine us not interrupted
If women did not possess an infinite capacity for disassociation, the effectiveness of her manipulations would be greatly lessened. if a Woman cannot sell herself a false narrative , she cannot manipulate men into holding her in higher regard. if women got what they deserved rather than what they wanted they could not disassociate. With disassociation she can avoid the consequences for this taking her to the same issue as innocent and chastity. Proverbs 31:10 who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that she shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. This verse is like finding the magical unicorn. She doesn't exist. However when a society follows the cultural advice laid out by ancient wisdom in which the recklessness of women are constrained, women begin to behave with a godly reverence. God created women to be a completer not a competitor.
It can seem like we pray to the saints, but we are actually asking them to pray for us. The logic behind this it that these people were able to get to Heaven, so why not ask them to pray for us so that we will be able to too? We’re asking them to help and pray for us, but we aren’t praying to them as if they’re God. In any human relationship we have, we grow closer to someone by befriending their family and friends so that we may know that person more and see how they came to be who they are. The same is true for Jesus :) By knowing His mother and friends, the saints, and asking them to pray for us, we are able to grow closer to Him.
Pray without ceasing, I love it how with every meal that we eat, even eating ice cream or a candy bar, or a couple of beers that we can offer of all these things for the sake of of someone else. Instead of just me enjoying what God has given me now it is taking on a whole new level for the sake of someone else!!
I’m a new convert, your advices give me so much energy and hope to do my best as a catholic. Thanks Jackie for making a newbie like me feel welcomed. God bless you.

Great video!❤️
@Austin Brown Austin, ever hear of the Nicene and Apostles Creeds? It's something all Catholics have to vow to believe.
Even with the difficulties, Saint Therese de lisieux prayed the rosary every day !!!
Its hard to pray the rosary, but we must not forget about the request of Our Lady Of Fatima, "Say the rosary every day, to bring peace to the world "
Yes! I struggle but remember our lady of Fatima 🙏
Amen! I recall Venerable Fulton J Sheen saying that we pray NOT with our stomachs (like, I'm hungry, I feel like ice cream, I don't feel like eating vegetables, I don't FEEL like praying the Holy Rosary, etc) but with our intellect. Obedience to Our Lady of Fatima's instructions!
@K H it's important as well. As God said "Be fruitful and multiply"
YES! Thank you for saying this. The Rosary is so important, even if it is difficult. Our spiritual walk with Christ is not suppose to be easy

All woman NEED to see this!
+@Catholics: Jesus is the Only Way
Ok, so, I'm a Roman Catholic as well and I would like to respectfully disagree with this statement. The Catholic Church doesn't actually discourage the use of sacramentals (rosaries, statues, etc.) In fact, if that's how you prefer to pray there's nothing wrong with that. You should never worship these images but they should always point to God. Fun fact, the alter is also a sacramental and where would Catholics be without the Mass! Anyway, I hope this helped and again, I mean no disrespect.
God bless!
Thank you! I’ll have to rewatch that one and take notes! You had so many good scriptures and ideas. Thank you for challenging me to be better! God bless you and your family!
My brother who died at 27 said "have you ever asked God what He wants you to pray? Maybe you're only meant to say one Hail Mary a day. Or a Hail Holy Queen a day."
I struggle with praying the rosary. I always have. I usually can pray easier with someone. But on my own I almost never pray it. I don't like that about myself but I'm with St. Therese.. I just feel like it's not my jam either. I know it helps me but to pray it I just struggle. Pray for me friends ♡
I watch one of these on mean people it really helped me I'm a non denominational Christian we are all apart of the body of Christ keep doing what yall are doing thank yall for encouragement and love
Love what you say at about the 6:00 mark, where it (impurities being sloughed off) keeps on happening until the Father can see his face in us. Wow! This is a great way to think about it. Thank you for this analogy! ❤️
Hello
What you said about Rosary. I'm having trouble praying it. It's a beautiful prayer, but any time I feel that urge to pray, my mind instantly is going to Divine Mercy. And so it is my " favorite " prayer.
Keep trying to pray it every day. It does get easier to pray as time goes on. I know because I have trouble with it also but I pray it every day. Also, if you have images of the decades to meditate on it helps A LOT. Padre Pio said the Rosary is THE weapon. Also the Blessed virgin Mary let us know at Fatima that she wanted us all to pray it. If we had more Catholics praying it we would be better off. If you look up the 15 promises of the Rosary you will almost WANT to pray it
Yam Kat amen!🙏
I love that gold analogy with Christ!✝️
Hi Jackie
I'm so inspired by your sharing.
But I'm struggling now with my marriage. Especially since I started holy hour after completing the sacred heart novena. Now every Friday I go for holy hour in our church. But my husband doesn't follow me. And then I attended the Catholicism programme by Bishop Robert Barron. That was the best decision I made. I tried encouraging him to attend with me. But he refused since there was sharing after each session. He attends mass 3 times during the week but is not open in serving the church. He's not open to confession too many times other than twice a year. I try to encourage him and my kids by going myself every other week
I think I saw you at Blessed John Henry Newman Ordinariate Parish this past Sunday! I didn't get a chance to say hello but, I thank you for all your words and wisdom, especially on the season of singlehood. You are such a blessing to so many people!
Great video! Your friend's analogy was amazing!
And please do those video ideas that you mentioned!
Awesome Jackie! I hope this goes viral!
Thanks Jackie! Another great video. Yes, we would like another video. Please remind us not to compare ourselves to other woman. God bless you.
Awesome ... Please do the saints vid... :) cant wait... In my house we are devote to Saint Anthony of Padua. My kids know him like the palm of their hands...
Great video Jackie. Thank you!✝️
The gold maker comparison gave me actual chills! Such a beautiful and encouraging video.
I really love your channel and your content . God bless you richly
😘❤️so helpful.
Thanks, Jackie
Make a video on virtue ethics, Father Mike could help too. I’ve started studying myself and it is awesome - taking me to new levels in my “sanctity” ( because that is the true goal (and I’m not there - not bragging)).
Jesus said my war is of principalities.
The supernatural virtues are faith, hope, and love. The cardinal virtues are temperance, prudence, justice, and fortitude - all other virtues come from those.
Bad principalities: pride, anger, lust, envy, gluttony, averice, and sloth. And the sins that come from those are described as “the daughters” of each one of those.
Know, after virtue and vice basics, you can get into ethics that are most important to your lives as women.
And you can get specific to women’s different lives, responsibilities, and trials. So pretty much what you do in every video I guess hahah.
I just wanted to share. Virtue ethics is major, and it really hasn’t been taught too much in the last century.
And these are considered eternal fruits, as valuable and un-perishable to God ( go to Thomas for better summary on this off course)
Thank you Jackie, I’m going to go back and watch Matt’s video.
Gavin thank you for this it was very informative I myself am just beginning my studies of the virtues I am definitely lacking and I need them to help me overcome and I want to teach my children these as well. Anyway thank you for all of this info it’s been very helpful God bless
I’m glad you found it useful, Lauren. I’m going to start with Dr. Taylor Marshall’s free book, “Thomas Aquinas in 50 pages” and then on to Nicomachean ethics which is a real old book that is the genesis to a lot of writings on ethics.
For sure teach your kids logic and reasoning, and virtue ethics - I am 20 and did not receive really anything useful in public school and have learned more online than I have in the entirety of my previous education. I don’t know specific courses for kids, but I know there is a lot of good courses out there.
I’ll say a prayer for you - Logos is rising
8:38 "Thomas Merton said 'no man is an island'". Merton wrote a book with that title, but the quote comes from John Donne writing in England in 1623.
I have found the Chaplet of St. Michael to be super helpful! He's my jam. :)
i miss reading the bible so much. :o i haven't read it anymore. i lost my bible in my home._. i hope to find it soon.
Just to point out- meekness, lowliness and forbearance does not mean you should tolerate violence, abuse, broken bones, threats to your own or your children's safety. Marriage vows are binding even if the marriage is unhappy, which most are eventually. We say for better or for worse, and worse is pretty much the norm. So, nobody ever promised you're going to be happy in marriage or that your husband will treat you well. But the "for worse" is not supposed to include getting crippled or killed by your spouse, or having your children grow up terrified.
Thank you for the video!! I have so many things to work on. Could you please make a video about how to stay be good catholic in abusive relationship either emotionally, verbally or physically. Should you take it as cross to bear and offer the suffering or are you bad catholic if you choose to separate?
Chocolicious one your safety comes first! Put as much distance between you and the abuser as you can. Find good counselling and healing. Then, and only then can you start to think about how to help this person. The truly loving thing to do for abusers is to prevent any further abuse. Please, save yourself first. Praying for you.
Needed this 🎉 Thank you.
Many Blessings to you ❤
In the video, you mentioned that you may make a video about praying to the saints and Mary. Someone in my family just said that he is uncomfortable saying the Rosary because it feels wrong to pray to Mary. I think due to our Protestant culture, this is a major conflict for many people, even many faithful Catholics. I'd love to watch a video about it! :)
I think it’s great that you reference scripture as well ☺️
This is awesome, you, my sister are awesome-thank God for people like you 💗🤗
Thank you for sharing, you are an inspiration
Thanks Jackie. This is a great video. Thanks again.
Thank you and God Bless you. Pls may i ask you to pray for my son Michael Iglesias who suffers from severe depression and alcoholism znd does not want to seek help. Thank you and your husband for alk the wonderful work you do in the name of the Lord
I clicked super fast when I saw this!
You’re amazing keep up the great work, God bless 🙏🏼
Thanks, Jackie!
Yeah! I’d love to see you do a video on Mary and the Saints!! 😃😃😃
Adoration is my jam!!!
Your new Zealand accent lol :D
Great video, from a New Zealand viewer.
Thank you!
You really help me to take small steps.
Love this! Thank you!
Hunger for the unadulterated Word of God is a sign of true salvation. His Word is the light 🕯️ unto our path, and the lamp 🪔 unto our feet. It is our daily bread 🍞 without which we will starve spiritually. It is essential for our spiritual growth. Nothing will ever compare to it! Nothing will ever stand close.
Thank you, Dear. God Bless you as well. ✝️🙏🏻🙌🏻🛐🕊💐💜
I hope to find strong group of friends to have in this journey of faith.
Don't beat yourself up if the rosary is hard but don't give up on it either.
Thank you so much! Your awesome! I do say the Divine Mercy Chaplet! And I did not know that about St.Teresa. I made some or I was encouraged by someone who has made sweet prayers. On Our Father beads, Sweet Heart of Jesus, be my salvation. On Hail Mary beads, Sweet Heart of Mary, be my Love, my life, my sweetness and my hope.
Sweet Heart of Mary, hear and answer my prayers. S.H.M., be my advocate. Oh Mary, conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee.
O Queen, who art the beauty of Carmel, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen Lisa
Beautiful msg.. love it ❤️
Thank you sister, can I share this video???
Of course!!! Definitely share...that's why she made it... to share with us and since not everyone will get a first chance, then we share it with them so they will get to hear! God bless....🙏🏼
Just one word about "mortal sin" (which I think is a big thing in the Catholic church? I am not Catholic but from what I heard it seems to be) - whatever it is, I don't want to know. I just want to tell you, that I struggled a lot about bible verses like that, and I thought: "Maybe God won't forgive me." But no, the bible would be a lie, if God won't forgive be ANYTHING I ask him for. God promised to forgive us any sin when we ask for it. So (my pastor explained me) this MUST BE to clue: If we commit an unforgivable sin, we would (for what ever reason) not come to God. Because IF we come, he MUST forgive us.
Thank God, he isn't a liar ♡♡♡
@Jin jin ah thank you very much! See, I got that wrong there. Mortal sin always sounded for me as a unforgivable sin (also English isn't my first language) - so thanks for making that clear to me!! 🤠
@Austin Brown Yes, I do
@Austin BrownThe Father is not the Son, nor the Son the Father, nor the Holy Ghost either again. God, or the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost are one. Not one person, but one as in, "they shall be one flesh." Not that they aren't really two fleshes, but that they are to be considered one. Except the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost are and always have been one. Not the same person, but the same God. Scripture doesn't say the Father, Son and Holy Ghost are 'expressions' of the same person. It clearly, and constantly distinguishes between them. If you are going to ignore that and claim the distinction isn't relevant, or pretend, then why are you pretending you care what Scripture says?
Avoid the temptation to follow private interpretation of Scripture, over and against the faith once delivered to the saints.
We don't need any more new 'original' interpretations. We just need the original, constant, perennial, and universal faith. not a new one. not a new interpretation. Not a new god.
@@AveChristusRex well, there is just one God, so we can't have "a new God".
We just need to find the truth. Whether the truth is what Christians believe since 2000 years or a few hundred years, or it's completely "new" (for us new, obviously not for God)
The church is not perfect. If the church is wrong, we should not stick to that, just because they did it for hundreds of years, but rather stand up to he truth, even if every single pastor / pope / Father is against it.
You know what I mean?
(I hope it's doesn't sound rude, my English isn't the best)
♡♡
@Austin Brown thanks :-)
But I'm not sure why you tell me this?
Yes please do a video on Mary and the saints! =)
ah, thank you. they read my comment. :)
I love your videos!! Thank you
Love this 💖
This lady talks all what Islam talks about, good 👍👍👍
You are right... the Word Of God is not a history book but Holy Spirit breathed... please talk about the Scripture in 1 Corinthians 11 concerning women covering their heads. Not sure why women don’t generally obey this any more
Amazing! Thank you
Living a virtuous life isn’t easy. Because there’s a lot of temptations and sin to ruin anything that we hold so dear.
only Jesus can pray for us, interced for us before God
So good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love it! I will be writing that bible verse down 🙏💗😇☝🏼 Thank you for this beautiful reflexion and lesson. I practice all of this, but fail time and time again. My prayer and Sacraments have helped me to heal so many areas of my life. 💗
Amen sister! 🙌🏽😇
I love you heart. Know that you can go boldly to the throne of grace and confess to God . No need to confess to a priest. Knock out the middle man sweetie. God is God all by Himself. Love and Blessings to you.
May I ask what bible translation Jackie is reading? I am not a native English speaker, and sometimes I find english translation is so much easier to understand. Thanks
Hey it's an amazing video. But I've been struggling with selfdoubt and self hatred for a really long time.. And when i read these verses it convicts it even more of what I'm not or what i should be. And this makes me feeling so bad, it makes me hate myself even more and makes me to compare to other christian woman and (also to the one describe in binle) with wonder how can they be so amazing and godly and JUST PERFECT.. does that even exist? I hate myself for not being that good enough 😭😭😭😭😭
Sometimes I hate myself too. I think it is important to remember that even when you hate yourself, God doesn't hate you.
Try to remember that God is continuously working in us.
Thanks n God bless! 🙂🙏
Can you make a video on sexism in the Bible and what that translation means in today society
10:14 so when we die we are alive in heaven I thought that happened after the resurrection?
The analogy of refiners fire is actually from the Bible not Brooks Fraser, well she might’ve been quoting the Bible. Zachariah 13: 9 also Job 23: 10
My volume is way up and stilli cant hear you.
Lol! You remind me of my sister !!!😊
Who is the *head* of the woman?
I like thisss
This is so true,... The world traditions and style are anti Christian and antiCatholic ... Only true lover of Jesus can remain a Christian.
Please find time to reply . I'm really struggling to understand this whole situation. My prayer life has become deeper and I have started getting up early to spend time in prayer so that my daily routine us not interrupted
she doesn't reply. I've seen very heart felt messages asking for help. She leaves them in total silence.
If women did not possess an infinite capacity for disassociation, the effectiveness of her manipulations would be greatly lessened. if a Woman cannot sell herself a false narrative , she cannot manipulate men into holding her in higher regard. if women got what they deserved rather than what they wanted they could not disassociate. With disassociation she can avoid the consequences for this taking her to the same issue as innocent and chastity. Proverbs 31:10 who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that she shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. This verse is like finding the magical unicorn. She doesn't exist. However when a society follows the cultural advice laid out by ancient wisdom in which the recklessness of women are constrained, women begin to behave with a godly reverence. God created women to be a completer not a competitor.
I want to grow up to be Jackie
Amen🌼
Is praying to the saints something jesus says to do though? He said only to pray by and though him.
It can seem like we pray to the saints, but we are actually asking them to pray for us. The logic behind this it that these people were able to get to Heaven, so why not ask them to pray for us so that we will be able to too? We’re asking them to help and pray for us, but we aren’t praying to them as if they’re God.
In any human relationship we have, we grow closer to someone by befriending their family and friends so that we may know that person more and see how they came to be who they are. The same is true for Jesus :) By knowing His mother and friends, the saints, and asking them to pray for us, we are able to grow closer to Him.
Pray without ceasing, I love it how with every meal that we eat, even eating ice cream or a candy bar, or a couple of beers that we can offer of all these things for the sake of of someone else. Instead of just me enjoying what God has given me now it is taking on a whole new level for the sake of someone else!!
